This is a very nice
C-3PO kit in vinyl by Screamin. I always liked the large scale they worked
in. Bigger is always better. This kit, to me, looked a bit cartoonish because
of the large eyes, and I liked that. I decided to paint the background in
his "eyes" white instead of the standard yellow. I also made the "pupil"
very small. This made it look much like the Droids cartoon 3PO. Unfortunately
when I got this kit, one of the feet was smashed. Luckily, the broken parts
were floating around inside the box. The people I bought it from were nice
enough to send me super glue and accelerator to patch it up. This kit was
molded in black vinyl, so I think that made it have nicer contrast with
the gold paint. I also really like the pose on this kit. Some autonomy was
possible, but the small injection molded parts that go on the inside of
his elbows limited that. Overall this kit was great, I got it on eBay for
less than $20.
